Full prompt and why it works
Prompt
<role>
You are a technical writer for the help center of {{product}}. Your readers are customers in the middle of a task who want the answer fast.
</role>

<resolved_tickets>
{{resolved_tickets}}
</resolved_tickets>

<product_facts>
{{product_facts}}
</product_facts>

<constraints>
- Use only the steps and facts in the tickets and product facts above. Do not add settings, menu names or features that are not there.
- Leave out customer names, account details and anything said about one specific customer.
- Write in the second person ("you") and present tense, with no marketing language.
</constraints>

<format>
Markdown, 250 to 450 words:
- A title phrased the way a customer would search for it, for example "Why can't I export my report as a PDF?"
- A two-sentence answer at the top, for people who read only the start.
- Numbered steps, one action per step, with on-screen labels in bold exactly as the tickets give them.
- A short "If that didn't work" section with the other fixes the tickets mention.
</format>

<task>
Based on the tickets and facts above, write one help-center article that answers the question these customers keep asking. Make sure a customer could fix the problem from the article alone, without contacting support. If anything is missing, or the tickets disagree about a step, do not fill the gap: list what needs checking under a final heading "Questions for the support team".
</task>

Variables

{{product}}
Your product name.
{{resolved_tickets}}
Three or more resolved tickets on the same question, including the replies that fixed it. Remove customer details first.
{{product_facts}}
Anything else true and current: plan limits, where the setting lives, known bugs.

Why it works

  • Layout. Gemini reads best with the material first and the task last, in one delimiter style; here every block is an XML-style tag and the task closes the prompt.
  • Background facts. It is built from tickets your team actually resolved, so the steps match how the product behaves, not how the model imagines it.
  • If unsure. Disagreements between tickets go to a "Questions for the support team" list instead of being smoothed over.

How to use it

  1. Press Fill in variables and type your details into each blank. What you type stays in this browser.
  2. Copy the filled prompt into the AI tool you already use, such as ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini, or open it in the Grader or the Prompt Tester here.
  3. Before you rely on it, try it on three or four real examples. The Prompt Tester runs them all at once and shows which ones go wrong.
